1. In response to your sig

I think its important to mention that last years election results could bear less important that some think because of the anti-gore sentiment that existed. I liked gore alot but alot of folks i spoke to voted for Bush because Gore left a bad taste in their mouth. Those people are up for grabs again. Also, Florida could be a big problem for Bush considering that crappy Medicare Bill he passed that actually took benifets away from seniors.
